Tech companies love them or hate them?

June 1 , 2006

Once upon a time someone had an idea..

that idea turned into an opportunity and the opportunity turned into a company that made a lot of money. PC World did a PC World top 25 list ;-) . Now it is possible I am on the defensive because I have been here a while working for this huge company. First, their article included an OUTDATED logo. Hello for people that actually write about technology didn�t they get the LLC notice? That logo was soooo 1990s. :-)

Faults?

I will be the first to admit we have our faults. Remember, I work here. ;-) But, we have a great people/ideas/products that work here too. Cough� AIM, when was the last time you im-ed your friend? Was that mentioned in the article? For PC World to decree all is evil in the world is easy� It’s easy to target big companies. I’ve done it from time to time in casual conversations. We get upset at Apple when their battieres don’t last as long as we thought they would. We make them be responsible. If that�s the motivation then sure.

There will always be critics but who will actually be the one to create and continue to create despite the critics. Stop complaining and go start a company with products that you would want to create/work for is far better use of time. :-)
